Bistro Japonais Furusato

Really nice authentic Japanese spot.

I had such a nice meal here! The staff are so lovely and welcoming and I had a great conversation with one the ladies about Japan. She even helped me with learning how to eat shabu shabu. The food is delicious... what's not to like? I'll be coming back here with my partner for sure so we can try other things on the menu.

We appreciate getting a table without a reservation on a Friday evening. The tendon was not fried with light batter and there was no dipping sauce with shredded daikon as one might expect. I also felt the agedashi tofu could have a more flavorful sauce. The restaurant customers seemed quite happy.

Food is good but selection is limited. Service was good. But a bottle of hakutsuru should not be 48$. Its robbery and taking your customers for fools. Their alcohol menu is limited and super expensive. Thats the most overpriced bottle in Montreal for sure. Its authentic but not worth it imho. There is better japanese resto in montreal.

My bf brought me here for our anniversary dinner and it honestly felt like we were transported back to Japan. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere brought so much nostalgia — the cozy interior, warm lighting, and intimate vibe reminded me of the small local restaurants in Tokyo.

The food was absolutely incredible and tasted so authentic. Every dish was prepared with so much care and flavor that it genuinely felt like dining in Japan again. You can really tell the restaurant values quality and authenticity.

What made the experience even more special was the kindness of the staff and owner. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly.

This was such a dinner, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Japanese food and a cozy and simple Tokyo-style dining experience in Canada. Definitely a must try!

We tried the sushi, tempura, and karaage.
The sushi pieces were bigger than at other restaurants. They came with wasabi inside, so I should have asked for them without wasabi.
The tempura included three shrimp, sweet potato, and onion.
The total cost was around $200 for two people, including tax and tip.

My wife loves this place and finally convinced me to go out for dinner tonight for the first time. Not just the food is fresh and the place cozy, but the service is spectacular. It’s been a long time I haven’t felt so welcomed. The staff is super nice and friendly and our waitress was amazing—they made our night. Try the Shabu shabu!

Sushi here is on par with anything I had in Japan. The vinegar-cured mackerel is unbelievably good. Great service too, kind and thoughtful staff.

I often went to Furusato when I lived in Montreal for three years, until this summer.
They have amazing sushi with fish imported from Japan, plus hotpots and Japanese home style dishes. The karaage especially reminded me of my mom’s cooking!
As a Japanese, Furusato is my best Japanese restaurant in Montreal.
Hope I can visit and eat there again someday.
